Is that only the second fact?
What's the first? And do you take off your socks too?

Have you ever tried it with your socks on?

( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 20:00, Reply)

sometimes when I'm at work and I'm really stressed and I think 'phwoooaaaIneedtocrackmytoes'
I'll do it secretly behind my desk, socks on.

My toes
are among the few joints that I can't consciously crack. I can pick things up with them though (eg, pens, tv remotes etc when I can't be arsed to bend down) Trufact.

If you're good enough to pick stuff up with them
maybe you'll no longer have the need to bend down?
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 20:14, Reply)

It only really works
for things smaller than the gap between the big toe and the next toe, otherwise you can't grip. So for instance, if I were to drop a satsuma, I would still have to exert myself and bend down because I'm not that much of a gap-toed freak.

But at least you can pick up small objects.
The larger ones are easier to grab when bending over and reaching.

If you do it loud enough, it might attract attention
Or is this your way of attracting attention and therefore your mating call?

no :(

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 20:13, Reply)

But it would still work if you wanted to attract a toe-cracking fetishist.

nope

Maybe you're just unlucky enough to be the only toe-cracker in your office.
Try cracking your toes in public and see who it attracts.
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 20:25, Reply)

I don't want to attract anyone.
I'm done with trying to attract people.
I'd rather be left alone in my toe-crackin' ways.

Oh dear
Couldn't you crack your toes as a cry for help?

Might there not be a toe cracking self help group you could join?

I will NEVER GIVE IT UP, YOU HEAR ME?!
*claws at toes in desperate attempt to crack what cannot be cracked*
( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 20:41, Reply)

Please don't be so defensive
I'm trying to help.

Cracking your joints is a perfectly normal human action.

Who amongst us hasn't wanted to crack our toes at some point in our lives? I certainly have.

It's really not that bad, honest
just having a bit *sniffle* of a break down here *silent sob*
( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 20:51, Reply)

OK Kristine
I feel your pain - truly I do.

Maybe you could just try this for me...crack 'em. Kristine, crack 'em for Jesus.

YEAH! Crack your toes for Jesus, lady!
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 20:58, Reply)

of all the things I've been asked to do for Jesus, cracking my toes has never been one of them

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 21:03, Reply)

Well it's about time, then.
He didn't just die on the cross for people with perfectly articulated joints, you know.

Let me guess
The feelings of guilt you had about breaking up your doctor's marriage, and having a spider for a bf got to you.

all of the above with added 'arghmenfuckoff'
But I'm going to the beach in two days so hurrah for THAT
( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 20:43, Reply)

Good for you
And if you take enough whips, you can make it a man-free beach.
( mistaspakkaman and the inedible shifting caterpillars, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 21:06, Reply)

it already will be
My whips and I will be hanging out in the hotel drinking and reading while the others will be out partying and sexing up random blokes
( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 23 Sep 2009, 21:09, Reply)

You could always whip your friend's blokes
and if they're in to that sort of thing, you'll bag yourself a bloke without all the hassle that this usually involves.
